Verify your identity using Interac® verification service

Interac® verification service is an identity verification process that you can use to register for My Service Canada Account (MSCA). Another verification method requires that you obtain a Personal Access Code (PAC). This can take up to 10 business days. The Interac® verification service option allows you to register and access MSCA right away.

Validating your identity is a one-time action for new MSCA clients. Once registered, you will not need to go through this process again.

To use Interac® verification service, make sure that your financial institution is included in the list of participating institutions:

• BMO
• CIBC
• Desjardins
• RBC
• Scotiabank
• TD

The Interac® verification service uses strong security protocols to protect your personal information and does not have access to your banking information.
